Nancy's mom, dead or alive?

In VEN, SQ was posing as a student, but that doesn't mean she's Nancy's age. Since she was wearing sunglasses, it's possible that they were covering up age lines. Maybe SQ worked with Nancy's mom?

In a Hardy Boys game, it's revealed that SQ is a teenager.

KD

I know people are concerned with keeping the integrity of the books, but I think that even though the games are based off the books loosely, that they wouldn't completely rely on their aid. I feel like HeR is in fact going to keep KD alive, and I'm wishing and praying that it is in fact her voice (the female voice) on the phone "call."

That would be cool, but VERY complicated. To prevent spoilers in future games, Nancy's mum would not be mentioned, and in order for that to happen, Nancy's mother would have to say something like, " I'm sorry Nancy, but this will be the last time we can be together."


I just cant see that happening.

If Nancy's mother did turn out to be alive, that would be wonderful. On the other hand, it would be just.....I don't know. It would change the history of Nancy Drew.

I mean, I'm excited for this game (extremely excited!) but having Nancy's mother be alive would change everything. There would be so many questions.

If she is alive, why she didn't come back?
Is she really a spy?
Does Carson Drew know something about her that he never told Nancy?
It would so confusing.

I'll guess we'll just have to wait and see.....

If Nancy's mom is really alive this changes Nancy Drew from book #1.
And most importantly in this game will we get to see Kate Drew, I mean we haven't seen Carson yet, or to mention Hannah either......?

Who knows? Maybe she actually isn't alive. She could have passed away at the time not from a car crash, but perhaps an assignment (if it's true she is a spy). Nancy could figure out the truth about her mom's past.

I have mixed feelings about this topic. Of course it would be awesome if Kate was alive, but that would change everything. Like what would happen to Hannah? would she stay or leave since nancy's mom is alive? Will nancy ever solve mysteries again knowing what happened to her mom?And this is just my theory, but if nancy's mom was murdred, why did Carson keep it a secret after all these years? Does Hannah even know what happened to Nancy's mom? and if she is alive, why didn't she come back? And will nancy ever forgive her dad for lying about something big as this for so long?Maybe we should stick with nancy's mom dying when she was 3, even though it's awful. I mean, I don't want to sound like an awful person but I don't know, maybe things will work so I'm happy with either way, but the games are based of the books and all of the books say Kate died. I don't want to seam like a horrible person, but that's carolyn keen's chracter: Nancy Drew grew up without knowing much about her mother. Hannah Guren, the housekeeper has always been like a second mother to nancy. I think it be better if kate died, which would be horribe for nancy but staying true to Carolyn Keen. Also I think carson KNEW about Kate's spy life. The reasons Carson didn't tell nancy is because he probably didn't want nancy growing up knowing her was murdred, and he waited too long to tell her and know he knows she loves to solve mysteries, so know he dosen't want to tell her because he alreadly lost his wife and he dosen't to loose his daughter.AND if nancy's mom is alive will nancy forgive her mom for never coming back? I think it be better if we found out how Kate died.

For one thing, Carson may not have known about Kate's spy life, and the authorities would certainly have covered up any government related aspects of her death. Carson could have known nothing.
If Carson DID know about Kate's spy life, he may have suspected the truth, but felt that taking care of his motherless daughter was more important than finding the truth.

I hope that HeR doesn't bring Kate Drew back to life, but I would love to find out more about her!

I honestly have mixed feelings as well about this. I think it would change a lot about the history of the books. I thought about something when I was watching the trailer after finishing GTH; what if someone is trying to trick Nancy into believing her mom is alive to trap her? It would be interesting either way.
